Dr Teal's Pure Epsom Salt Soaking Solution With Lavender combines pure epsom salt (Magnesium Sulfate U.S.P), Which has long been known to revitalize tired achy muscles and refresh skin's appearance, with luxurious essential oils to soothe the senses and provide relief from stress. Lavender essence has soothing properties that are known to encourage a better night's sleep. Epsom salt is said to have been discovered in the late middle ages when a farmer in Epsom, England noticed the water flowing through his property soothed skin wounds. Nature had infused Epsom’s springs with Magnesium Sulfate, which helps ease muscle aches and pains, exfoliate dead skin cells, soothe sore feet, improve sleep, and reduce stress. Dr Teal's products combine the ancient benefits of pure Epsom salt with the revitalizing and restorative qualities of natural essential oils.
